I found a post on Reddit from a Patriots fan that made me so happy

I see CAP as a surprise cut, move Hood to the PS as ''traditional back'' insurance (5'11, 230) and have Barner and his ability behind CMC, and CJ. 

This is exactly how I want us to approach the RB roster positions.

It's a worthy question: How good are we really?

I also suspect we're not as good as the hype, but better than we have been. That gets people excited, probably a little too excited but hey...

I suppose the good thing is it won't be at all that long before we find out how good we really are (or aren't).

This is so true. We've been overly optimistic about our preseason WR depth/ quality before.

2016 comes to mind. Getting KB back. Twin towers (KB & Funch).

Last year too... Expected a lot of Samuel.

So far the WR depth does look like a big upgrade from what we had at the end of last season. I like the diversity of skill sets. 

Actually though, what perhaps is most exciting is our OVERALL receiving talent. When you add in CMC, Olsen, Ian Thomas and CJ Anderson to the list of Cam's targets......!!! Now THAT should be very scary for opposing Defenses.

No, we don't have AB or Julio. But the combination of quantity and quality of receivers could make this a very dangerous offense.

It’s true. Mose Frazier has actually looked good and god forbid we do something like cut Byrd. I can only imagine how well Byrd would do there.

Byrd would put them back into a dangerous offensive team imo his speed with Toms accuracy poo. We can't let him go nitbgir those reason just because he's a addition to our roster if he's out 6th wideout we're in good shape.

Nah, we start with three HB's instead of four like last year to make room. 

Manhertz, or a someone else will be the 3rd TE.

This actually how I see the roster lining up.   CAP IMO has been ok but not brilliant and Barner provides a similar back to CMC if he went down, God forbid.

The last two guys who went to the Pats didn’t do so well

that white rb 

Kony Ealy

Don't forget Brandon LaFell.  While he had a decent year in '14, he was cut loose after his 2nd year (2015 season).  If he couldn't make it with TB throwing him the ball...well, I think that's enough said.

    • I'd give it a C mainly because of Brooks.  If we just didn't have a 2nd I'd argue B to B+ tbh. Brooks was a bad gamble, tho one that could still pay off long term. Yes XL only has 400 yards but... Look who is throwing him the ball. And I think he isn't a "true #1" but he's been able to consistently get open. Hands definitely need to be cleaned up.  But he should end the year with 500-600 yards. Like you said - Sanders looks great.  Get him a better QB / more time with a QB and I think he's gonna impress. We added a couple rotational players on D that have both made plays and show promise for the future from later rounds. So I'd say, Brooks really hurts this drafts grade. It'll be interesting to see how it progresses over the next 3 years. I've overall really liked Morgan's FA acquisitions, so...
    • Oh he would absolutely flourish. It’s the panthers way. It’s no different with coaches. Sometimes they reach their expiration date, go somewhere else, and find new success.  Similarly to Burns, how long to wait for the light to finally turn on?  Market forces will demand a salary that the panthers can not responsibly match. Sliding him to guard will fit his skill set better, but he has played LT for 3 years. He will receive offers from other teams wanting to pay him LT money.  At guard, he won’t start with what they have paid Hunt and Lewis. Center then?? Dunno. Maybe? He will become a backup by default once they draft their stud LT. I doubt Dan just stands pat. That’s not his MO.  So where does this put him? Can you match what other teams will offer for a backup LT/guard? Do you dish out franchise LT $ on a guy who still needs significant improvement in pass protection. This team will be DOA in the playoffs with the very first team who has a formidable speed rusher. What if he has hit his ceiling in pass protection already and they sign him long term? It’s a big gamble either way. 
    • We're in a great position to see just how big of a misstep it would be, having made so many ourselves
